Do I have to pay a debt that has been sold?
The requirement to pay a monthly fee for a trust depends on the structure of the trust and whether it is being managed by a professional trustee, such as a bank, a law firm, or a dedicated trust company. If you have established a professional trust, the trustee typically charges an ongoing administration fee, which can be structured as an annual percentage of the trust assets or a flat monthly or quarterly service fee. These charges cover the work of managing the investments, preparing tax filings, distributing funds to beneficiaries, and ensuring the trust complies with all legal requirements. If the trust is a "revocable" or "living" trust where you are acting as your own trustee, you generally do not pay yourself a fee, though you might encounter costs for professional advice, such as legal or accounting services. If you are a beneficiary of a trust, the administration fees are usually paid directly out of the trust’s assets, meaning the money is deducted from the trust balance before you receive your distributions. Always review the trust document itself, as it will explicitly state the provisions for how the trustee is to be compensated for their services.
